Life will sometimes seem long and tough. And you will sometimes be happy and sometimes sad. And then youll be old. And then youll be dead. There is only one sensible thing to do with this empty existence, and that is: fill it.

A book for the romantic-realist in all of us, You Dont Have to Have a Dream offers Tim Minchins inimitable thoughts and advice on life, art, success, kindness, love, and thriving in a meaningless universe. Drawn from three of his iconic commencement addresses, and beautifully designed with specially commissioned illustrations throughout, its a rallying cry for creativity, critical thinking, and compassion in our daily lives.

Its never too late to put something beautiful out into the world.
